Expression data in 4T1 cells after co-culture with murine PI/AI BMDM macrophages

ABSTRACT: Macrophages can exert both pro- and anti-tumorigenic features. Interaction between tumour-associated macrophages and tumour cells trigger signalling mechanisms affecting gene expression patterns in both cells. Changes in tumor gene expression affect essential physiological processes such as metabolism, proliferation or adhesion that can lead to an increased invasive and metastatic potential. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression in tumour cells after pro-inflammatory (anti-tumorigenic, M1 or PI) or anti-inflammatory (pro-tumorigenic, M2 or AI) and identified distinct classes of down-regulated genes during this process.

Project description:Dunster2014 - WBC Interactions (Model1) This is a sub-model of a three-step inflammatory response modelling study. The model includes distinct populations of white blood cells namely, macrophages and active and apoptotic neutrophil populations. Neutrophil apoptosis rate is predicted to be crucial for the qualitative nature of the system. This model is described in the article: The resolution of inflammation: a mathematical model of neutrophil and macrophage interactions. Dunster JL, Byrne HM, King JR. Bull. Math. Biol. 2014 Aug; 76(8): 1953-1980 Abstract: There is growing interest in inflammation due to its involvement in many diverse medical conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, cancer, arthritis and asthma. The traditional view that resolution of inflammation is a passive process is now being superceded by an alternative hypothesis whereby its resolution is an active, anti-inflammatory process that can be manipulated therapeutically. This shift in mindset has stimulated a resurgence of interest in the biological mechanisms by which inflammation resolves. The anti-inflammatory processes central to the resolution of inflammation revolve around macrophages and are closely related to pro-inflammatory processes mediated by neutrophils and their ability to damage healthy tissue. We develop a spatially averaged model of inflammation centring on its resolution, accounting for populations of neutrophils and macrophages and incorporating both pro- and anti-inflammatory processes. Our ordinary differential equation model exhibits two outcomes that we relate to healthy and unhealthy states. We use bifurcation analysis to investigate how variation in the system parameters affects its outcome. We find that therapeutic manipulation of the rate of macrophage phagocytosis can aid in resolving inflammation but success is critically dependent on the rate of neutrophil apoptosis. Indeed our model predicts that an effective treatment protocol would take a dual approach, targeting macrophage phagocytosis alongside neutrophil apoptosis.
